Green Trail is a short, easy hike on county land in the West Park area of New York, about 0.3 miles long and with a total climb of 91 feet. The route is point to point, and the steepest part comes early, around 0.2 miles in, with a grade of about 9 percent. The most comfortable stretch runs from late spring into early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show highs around 70°F in May and 74°F in September. The station sits about 300 feet lower than the trail, so temperatures on the route run slightly cooler. Bikes and horses are not allowed on the trail. The closest neighbors are the Yellow Trail, 0.6 miles away, and the White Trail, 0.7 miles away. Climbers can reach Tea Town Boulders about 6 miles off, and the Croton River offers paddling roughly 8 miles away.
